A vibrant summer dish featuring honey lime marinated chicken, fluffy jasmine rice, and fresh avocado salsa.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 pieces limes, juiced
  • 1 tablespoon lime zest
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 1 cup jasmine rice
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 piece avocado, diced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Mix honey, juice of 2 limes, lime zest, minced garlic, ground cumin, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add chicken breasts, coat evenly, cover, and marinate in the fridge for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Bring 2 cups of chicken broth to a boil in a saucepan. Add jasmine rice, stir, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for about 15 minutes or until rice is tender.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add marinated chicken breasts and sear for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from heat and let rest.
  4. Combine diced avocado, finely chopped red onion, and cilantro in a bowl. Squeeze lime juice over the mix and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Layer fluffy jasmine rice on a plate, top with sliced chicken, and add avocado salsa. Serve with lime wedges.

Notes

For added flavor, consider grilling the chicken instead of pan-searing. Adjust honey according to taste if lime is too tangy.
